Introducing the Forge 12: a fishing kayak built as an open platform, so you decide what it becomes. Stock doesn't mean basic. Every Forge comes standard with stand-up stability, a dry ride on a raised floor with 600 lb of capacity, a smartly designed open floor plan, and hands-free foot-controlled rudder steering. From there, build it your way: keep it simple and paddle, add our new xRange pedal drive with its all-new steering system, or go electric with an easy-to-install motorization package. With a smooth, rounded bow that handles everything from rivers to bays, the Forge is the most accessible way into the Native lineup, built to perform well above it.
The Forge begs two questions unanswered: how will you build it, and where will you take it? Versatile hull ready for rivers, lakes, and backwaters. Open floor plan. Dry ride. Foot-controlled rudder. X-Range pedal drive and motor kits available when you’re ready to build.
Native built the foundation. The water and the build: those are yours.
